Invasive Plant

indiana sam... i owe you one!

you are a life saver. i dont think i could have figured this out on my own


to everyone else, thank you!
 
i read salt will kill this plant, that is the only thing i could find.

have you tried this?

how much salt would be safe to put in a very densely planted tank? 1 TBSP per 5 gallons? just a little less? i dont want to slow the growth of my plants too much and cause an algae bloom
 
if I were you, i'd just tear it out by hand.
 
GO CRAZY!!! and please, don't use chemicals.
 
i dont use chemicals. only meds after salt and temp changes dont work.

i will make a small rake out of paperclips and rake the stuff out :duh:

yeah, just do a huge pull-out job. it's not hard to just yank that stuff out, you're a man! :D
 
it is not hard, it is that when i start to put it out i feel like the 20 minutes i take never do me any good. it seems like it is everywhere and it takes so long to go around that i havent been able to just settle down and do it. working 12 hours a day doesnt help, beer gets the other two hours of my awake time.

sorry, but I don't know of any safe way to kill it other than maybe tearing down the whole tank and letting the stuff dry out.
 
Well good luck, and please exclude "invasive plant" from whatever your sending me lol.
